The guidelines are for the Pomona College campus community and for architects, landscape architects, and contractors who work with the College. Pomona College has a rich heritage of planning and design that provides a foundation for new and restored buildings and landscapes. The campus is viewed as an evolving place. Successful design celebrates the distinctive elements of the campus environment and the residential college community. Innovation should build on tradition through imaginative ideas, technologies, and processes. These guidelines outline some of the most valued planning, urban design, and building and landscape characteristics of the campus. CAMPUS PLANNING GUIDELINES 4 DESIGN PROCESS The design process is expected to create architecture and landscapes of exceptional, distinguished design quality, integrity, and sensibility for the “Pomona College experience”. The Design Process will be the means to: Build on the rich heritage of planning and design on the Pomona Campus The history of planning and design for Pomona College is well documented. A bibliography of materials that describes many aspects of that history is at the end of this document. Celebrate the distinctive elements of the campus environment with imaginative ideas, technologies, and processes The guidelines describe fundamental qualities and characteristics of the campus environment. Buildings and landscapes should illuminate these qualities in inventive ways that advance the art of design. Assure the development of a comprehensive program and the integration of design aesthetics, functionality and flexibility, capital and life-cycle costs, and sustainability The building program translates academic and residential needs to quantitative and qualitative requirements. It is the first product of the design process, and it is the foundation for the design and planning that follows. The detailed program includes descriptions of space requirements, functional and spatial relationships, indoor environmental design criteria, furnishings and equipment, and expectations for sustainability. The programming process includes the development of a detailed site analysis and program accommodation study. Building and site development budgets reflect capital and life-cycle costs. 5 DESIGN PROCESS THE POMONA COLLEGE CAMPUS The College’s legible planning framework and its buildings, landscapes, places, and works of art distinguish the campus. The residential college community and the physical attributes of the campus create the “Experience of Pomona College”. A designer who understands these distinguishing elements is better prepared to explore innovative solutions that build on and enrich the experience.

Seaver Biology Building CAMPUS PLANNING GUIDELINES 6 CAMPUS ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE Myron Hunt established the planning framework for the campus in his 1908 plans. Later, Jamieson & Spearl, Architects, and the landscape architect Ralph Cornell, refined and elaborated the Hunt plans. The fundamental elements of the open space framework, landscape, circulation, and programs were described in the Myron Hunt plans. Marston Quadrangle is the academic and civic lawn, the centerpiece of the campus. The buildings, gardens, and courtyards define Pomona College as the “Campus in a Garden”. The north side of the Marston Quadrangle was designated for men’s housing, the sciences, and a gymnasium. A science quadrangle— now the Peter W. Stanley Academic Quadrangle—occupied the northwest corner of the campus. The south side of the Quadrangle was planned for women’s dormitories, liberal arts, and a gymnasium. Carnegie Library was the head of the Quadrangle looking toward the fields that became Blanchard Park, “The Wash”. The Park was designated for recreation, a rural experience, and as the site of a Greek Theatre. Hunt marked the north edge of the campus with the College Gates The mountains then seemed to be at the front door of the campus. The campus is an overlay on the Claremont street grid. The plan establishes axial relationships among structures and places, giving order to the siting and organization of buildings. Pathways, such as the one between the Bridges Hall of Music and the Smith Campus Center, emphasize the axes. These pathways, and sets of east-west enfilades that pass though buildings, gardens, and courtyards, create inside and outside spatial experiences unique to Pomona College. 7 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE CAMPUS PLANNING GUIDELINES The Campus Planning Guidelines are organized around campus districts. The districts are described by architectural characteristics and programs and by specific elements of the campus planning structure. The guidelines describe the Context for each district, followed by Intent and expectations for development sites within the district. The Context descriptions include the planning framework, distinctive architecture or landscape elements, and relationships to other districts and the Claremont community. The Intent describes expectations for the land use or building program for a site, building setback lines, building height and massing, roof forms, and materials and colors. The guidelines highlight additional expectations such as adherence to elements of the planning framework or special opportunities for sustainable development. Landscape guidelines (a separate document) for the site or for adjacent land uses are referenced. SUSTAINABILITY The College has established goals for sustainability. Among those goals are reduction of energy costs, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the responsible application of renewable resources, and financial risk mitigation. Integrating these goals during the programming and design process is required for effective results. Energy Intensity and carbon emission performance requirements (Energy Intensity and CO2 equivalency budgets), for individual buildings or by district, are included in the Pomona College Green Building Standards. Budgets for energy intensity and carbon emissions are determined by: •Building program and use: classroom, office, laboratory, residence, etc. •Year of construction or renovation •Suitability for the application of special technologies, particularly those for renew able energy The design guidelines highlight opportunities for sustainable reductions of energy intensity and carbon emissions. These opportunities are informed by the nature of the building programs and, considering the campus context, the application of technologies for renewable resources. In addition to the energy Intensity and carbon emission budgets: •New construction, renovations, restorations, and alterations to facilities are expected to adhere to Pomona College Green Building Standards

  • Myron Hunt-Designed Mansion in San Marino Sells for More Than $6 Million
    Myron Hunt-designed mansion in San Marino sells for more than $6 million April 1, 2020 A view of the backyard at the Monterey Period Revival-style estate in San Marino that architect Myron Hunt designed in 1930. (Courtesy of Compass) By SANDRA BARRERA | [email protected] | Daily NewsPUBLISHED: April 21, 2020 at 3:19 p.m. | UPDATED: April 23, 2020 at 10:13 a.m. A gated Monterey Period Revival-style estate in San Marino, designed by prominent architect Myron Hunt in 1930 and extensively remodeled and updated, has sold for $6.03 million. The six-bedroom, 5,212-square-foot house fetched $130,000 over-asking price after it received “multiple offers,” said listing agent Sarah Rogers of Compass though she refused to say how many. “In this environment where a lot of estate properties or higher-end properties in San Marino are generally taking a lot longer to sell, this property sold right away and did well,” Rogers said, adding it’s especially significant “during this tumultuous time.” The winning offer from a local family set the deal in motion before Los Angeles County issued the stay-at-home order. Property records show the house closed in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic on April 9, with Sabrina Wu of Compass representing the buyer. “At the showing,” Rogers recalled, “the buyer took off her shoes and changed into her socks. She said something like, ‘If these are going to be my floors, I want to protect them.’” Those white oak hardwood floors run across both levels of the house, starting from the towering foyer.

  • Campus Planning & Architecture
    Campus Planning & Architecture Since its inception in 1982, the practice of Moule & Polyzoides, Architects and Urbanists has been focused on the American campus. We have worked with colleges and universities across the country, guided by sensitivity to their essential needs and our understanding of the humanist and environmental purposes of architecture and planning. Our exceptional buildings, magnificent land scapes and well- scaled public spaces create a powerful sense of place that nurtures academic communities and advances the aspirations of academic institutions. Balch Hall Renovation and Philosophers Walk Allée Restoration, Scripps College Claremont, California 2 At a time when ambitions are limited, and resources even more so, campus planning and the architec- ture of academic facilities can be directed away from isolated, monumental and extravagant projects. By focusing instead on smaller, simpler projects, each institution can incrementally complete the form of its campus while strengthening its unique physical character and improving the quality of life for its faculty, staff and students. The key characteristics of such a tactical planning and design culture are: • Aseamlessphysicalandeconomicconnectionofeachcampustothecitysurroundingit; • Acompact,mixed-usecampusform,structuredonamultimodalstreetandpathnetwork thatfavorswalkability,bikeabilityandaccesstotransit; • Adaptivereuseandmodestadditionstoexistingfacilities—onlybuildingnewonesasa matteroflastrecourse; • Publicspaceandlandscapebetweenbuildingsasapriority,generatingoutdoorrooms

Tom Sitton was appointed project facilitator in 1974 and worked with various historical societies to complete survey forms. From 1976 to 1977, the museum project operated through a grant awarded by the state Office of Historic Preservation, which allowed the hiring of three graduate students for the completion of 500 surveys, taking site photographs, as well as to help write eighteen nominations for the National Register of Historic Places (three of which were historic districts). The project concluded in 1978. Preferred Citation: Historic Sites Surveys, Seaver Center for Western History Research, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History Special Formats: Photographs Scope and Content: The Los Angeles County historic site surveys were conducted from 1974 through 1978. Compilation of data for historic sites continued beyond 1978 until approximately 1996, by way of Sitton's efforts to add application sheets prepared for National Register of Historic Places nominations. These application forms provide a breadth of information to supplement the data found on the original survey forms.
